    I find that I always have more benefits when I have more cash.

    Rumored Specs for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 60 Series Emerge with up 2x or More Performance Gains over RTX 50 Series

    Yep on both accounts and why my next strategy is a 31-32" 1440p 21:9 with all the 2026 bells and whistles so my 5090s can retire comfortably.

    Reports of RTX 50 Series Black Screen Issues Piling Up as NVIDIA Opens Investigation into the Matter

    Well, in my case it wasn't any sort of a hardware failure at all, nor a driver issue but a crappy launcher doing something in the background to throw everyone off the bus. Just finished a 3.5 hour session with Metro Exodus launched via a trainer but meanwhile if I'd launched via GOG Galaxy I'd...

    Reports of RTX 50 Series Black Screen Issues Piling Up as NVIDIA Opens Investigation into the Matter

    Ugh! For F's sake. So, I've mostly been playing Oblivion Remastered, Indiana Jones before it, and did a complete run of RE Requiem, and things have been great. Something all of these games have in common is a range of modern RT effects, which can demand a lot of power from the GPU especially if...

    NVIDIA Releases Game Ready Driver 595.97 WQL, Hopefully Faring Better than 595.59

    Pretty there's just one person left handling these and they are on perpetual lunch breaks. Bad doesn't quite describe what the last 6+ months have been like with these.

    Speaking of reducing display power consumption, read this a few days ago and almost did a post on it. https://www.techpowerup.com/347627/lg-display-becomes-worlds-first-to-mass-produce-1-120-hz-laptop-panel

    The OLED Black Depth Lie – When Panel Type and Coating Matters

    I've seen mixed results with IPS panels. I mostly like them, especially the one in my Sony Z9D 65" and an LG 31.5" Cinema 4K monitor (I forget the model number but it was native 4096x2160 60hz non-HDR 12-bit) but I've seen some crap panels in laptops as well. TN though, hard to say anything good...

    Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition is Official: AMD Puts 3D V-Cache on Both Chiplets, Launches April 22

    I think it could be a little of all of the above as to why now but let's not forget that competition will often drive new product launches and Intel is pushing back to some degree now and is expected to have more things on the horizon. AMD is just essentially cementing its footprint at the top...

    The OLED Black Depth Lie – When Panel Type and Coating Matters

    Yeah, can't wait for the new models start appearing this year, particularly looking forward to 31-32" 1440p 21:9 ones.

    Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition is Official: AMD Puts 3D V-Cache on Both Chiplets, Launches April 22

    Realistically speaking, I've got no need for but I still want it just for the cool factor that it exists.

    Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition is Official: AMD Puts 3D V-Cache on Both Chiplets, Launches April 22

    Keeping a keen eye on this but still waiting for that Zen6 part with 10 or 12 or more cores but I have a feeling we won't get anything official until the fall or maybe even CES 27.

    Samsung App Found to Be the Cause of Loss of Access to C: Drives, Windows Update Cleared of Wrongdoing, for Now

    Yeah, at this point I don't care who rolls it out, I'm scared of updates from anyone now. Thankfully though, I don't own or have to maintain any Samsung PCs and so was able to avoid this. What's worse though is that bloatware which is annoying in its own right, could cause such a major issue for...

    Intel Core Ultra 200S Plus Reviews Are In: Arrow Lake Gets Its Redemption Arc

    Yep, Intel is definitely looking to compete at the mid-tier levels and even edging a little higher than that in terms of overall performance. I can see why they've been so mobile-focused but then also those same parts have more potential unlocked in desktop setups with the added power and...
